We Hate Goodbyes!

Well, all good things must come to and end.... we had such a great time at mom and dad's and the girls have many wonderful memories! I'm sure that they are going to have a hard time when school starts and their teachers ask them. .." What did you do over the summer?" Maybe I should warn the teachers! ha! This picture of the girls was taken one of our last nights at mom and dad's. My two oldest brothers came out to the ranch and we all ate dinner, then played woffel ball in the back yard, and swam, and of course my mom got in a round of cards with some of the family!:) Hannah and her cousin Jessie caught about 15 lighten bugs that night! So much fun! One great memory for me will be saying prayers each night with my kids and my parents and occasionally all the extended family when they were there. This picture was taken just after prayer-time. I found a great devotion for kids on fireflies so we read it that night! It was so cool to have everything come together!... sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.. haha!

Hannah and Jessie and their glowing treasures! I tried to take the picture outside where you could actually see the bugs lighting up but it was just a big blur... so we went inside to capture the moment. You'll just have to use your imagination or ask Hannah about it!
